Vasudha is a collection of projects that offer AI and IoT-enabled technology solutions to drive sustainability goals. This includes developing Vision AI algorithms for solar panel quality assurance or optimization and multi-agent simulations for renewable control decisions under uncertainties.
Designing and developing a system to improve the transparency of operations and monetary flow within the philanthropic sector, while also aiding the efficiency and productivity of NGOs.
Through this project we hope to provide an effective tool to both policy makers and the general public to address air pollution and work toward cleaner air and healthier citizens.
Through our drive-by air pollution sensing research project, we are enabling cost-efficient collection of granular spatiotemporal pollution data through drive-by sensing.
Through this interactive machine translation tool, we hope to not only provide help for human-aided translations for underserved languages but also for certain use cases for highly resourced languages where a human in the loop can help aid translation activities.

The goal of Project LITMUS is to discover strategies to evaluate massive multilingual models and also suggest data collection and training strategies to improve the performance of these models.
Our goal is to provide a simple and easy way to (i) remotely measure and observe the health of a sensor, and (ii) empower users to specify their acceptable data quality threshold driven by the application requirements.
